      <p>I've been <a href="/presentations/taking-flight-with-tailwind-css">speaking about and advocating for Tailwind CSS</a> and utility-first CSS for a long time.</p>

      <p>In my slide deck, I show screenshots of websites that are all built with Tailwind CSS - including some <a href="/blog/uis-ive-rebuilt-tailwind-css">rebuilds of existing websites</a>.</p>

      <p>I do this to show that the same approach and framework can be used to create different-looking designs because the classes are atomic and can be reused and combined as needed.</p>

      <p>This isn't the case with other CSS frameworks that focus on components first.</p>

      <p>As an experiment, some time ago I decided to <a href="https://bootstrap-with-tailwind.oliverdavies.uk">rebuild some of the Bootstrap example components using Tailwind CSS</a>.</p>

      <p>I've only done a pricing grid and album, but I may do more in the future.</p>

      <p>I originally built the examples with Astro but have ported them to Sculpin, which I'm more familiar with.</p>

      <p>If you want to see how I've built these components or how for an example of building a static website with Sculpin, <a href="https://code.oliverdavies.uk/opdavies/bootstrap-with-tailwind">check out the source code</a>.</p>
